Embroidery empress Jenny Hart taught her friends and fans the basics in a few of her other books.
Now she takes stitchers one step further with instructions and diagrams for more than 35 stitches, some published here for the first time.
To top it off, Embroidered Effects includes dozens of original (and reusable) iron-on transfers.
With lots of project photos for guidance, even beginners can learn how to stitch faux tattoos on their shirt sleeves, cheeky fan dancers on their shower curtains, and many more fun projects.
